As the Civil War began, President Lincoln accepted the belief that individual states should settle the question of slavery. it was time to end slavery throughout the United States. the Union could be preserved as a mix of free and slave states. preserving the Union was not worth the loss of life it would cause.

President Lincoln accepted the belief that individual states should settle the question of slavery

Explanation:

While the war initially began to ensure that he was able to preserve the union and not about Slavery as the war progressed and with the Emancipation Proclamation he declared that the war would end slavery as well as preserve the Union. We see this again when he gives the Gettysburg Address

hello!

according to the passage the most suitable options are two. the first one is "by leading the aef to victory in several key battles" like the battle of saint- mihiel and the battle of cantigny mentioned in the passage you copied here. the second one is "by the aef and allied forces defeat germany" since the passage says that his army destroy the german resistance in the meuse- argonne offensive. and also, "by insisting that the aef operate as an independent force".

hope this
